Review from Lyndsey B (Mother of Child) published on 14 July 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I had a lot of anxiety about sending my 'lockdown baby' to any nurseries and was very honest with the team. They were warmer and more patient than I ever could have imagined. The manager was brilliant about talking me through their collective experiences, and how safe they were keeping the environment
for the babies with still keeping us parents as part of the process. The Chicks room team have all been fantastic. The key workers have all become a wonderful part of our son's life. I couldn't think of a better, warmer and more engaging start to his life. Thank you will never be enough. Not only would I recommend, but indeed have already recommended Phoenix Park nursery to a friend as I know that they will do a great job for both her and her daughter.
Reply from Darren Whiten, Director at Phoenix Park Nursery Nuthall
This review has brought a tear to my eye. I knew exactly who it was from without looking. We can't express how glad we are that we were able to support you both through that transition.
And thank you…read more

My son has attended this nursery for 3.5 years and has been very happy here. The staff are friendly, helpful and approachable for both kids and adults. We've never had any reason for complaint, very happy with this nursery - so much so that our youngest starts here soon. The menus for meals are always
varied and full of healthy choices. There is good access to outside spaces so the children get outdoor time every day, rain or shine.

Phoenix Park has been an excellent start for our little boy.
He has attended since he was 5 and a half months old and will be staying until he starts school.
He has generally been extremely happy in this setting and when he hasn't the team have worked with me to correct it.
His language and social
skills are well developed, and I believe nursery has contributed to this greatly.
Reply from Darren Whiten, Director at Phoenix Park Nursery Nuthall
Thank you so much. He really has developed amazingly.

I am happy I chose Phoenix Park for my son, he has started only about 2 months ago and I can see he has grown a lot, especially socially since he had been a ‘lockdown baby’. I like how I am told how his day was and how friendly and caring the staff are.

I can’t explain how wonderful this nursery is!
The owners and nursery caregivers have been caring for my little boy for over 2 years since he was just a few months old, and I cannot fault the team!
The environment is modern and clean with lots for children to see and do and the staff are all kind,
friendly and nurturing and have helped my boy thrive!

Thanks, Katie. Time is flying by though isn't it! We don't want him to grow anymore.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have two boys at the nursery, they both attend two days a week.
The nursery staff are all very friendly and always caring towards our boys. They develop really strong bonds with the children.
Our youngest boy has struggled with various illnesses and has had several hospital stays due to his health,
I have complete faith and trust in the staff to monitor him and act appropriately should they need to.
It tells you a lot that we can drop them off in the morning and go to work and not spend even one second worrying about them, we know they are being well looked after.
Reply from Darren Whiten, Director at Phoenix Park Nursery Nuthall
Oh my goodness, Lucy! If I could take both of your boys home with me, I would. They are such amazing little boys, with such characters. You should be super proud of them.

Exceptional Nursery! A culture of excellence, inclusion and passion. My Son was welcomed and integrated during the December lockdown in 2020. Despite all the challenges of the time, the staff operated with compassion and excellence. Fantastic communication and professionalism throughout. The emphasis
on learning and development through creative and inspirational delivery is impressive. We feel clear about our Son’s progress and have honest and open discussions with his key workers. We are proud to be a part of the Phoenix Park Nursery Family. Our Son is thriving and we are grateful.

Our son attends Phoenix Park Nursery, and he loves it there; he’s always telling me he needs to go to nursery when he’s not there. He comes home happy and full of beans with lots of stories about his day. We are really pleased with the nursery, the staff are very approachable, caring and friendly.

My daughter has been going here since she was 1, and I can't believe it's now time for her to go to school this September. During her time there, she has always, and I mean always arrived and left with huge smiles beaming on her face. As soon as I visited the place when she was a baby, I knew it was
the one for her, and the feeling was further confirmed when I saw how she has thrived there. I will be so sad when she finishes end of July, but cannot thank them enough for being a huge part of shaping her into the girl she is today. So thank you.

We love this nursery. My little girl feels very safe and happy at the nursery. Being born in lockdown, we were very anxious about leaving her with new people and being in a new environment. The nursery staff have been great. They have made our journey easy and it is clear that they care, support and
love the children in their care. The lunches sound amazing, allowing my daughter to try such a variety of foods. From starting it is clear how much my daughter has developed.

I can’t recommend Phoenix Park Nursery enough. My son has been going for the past year and has been thriving. Obviously, things have been a little different from the current situation, but they’ve thought through the return and how best to bring the children back in. The staff are really friendly and
know the children very well. All are loved by my son. Activities and the nursery area’s are well thought through and engaging. All in all, highly recommended.

Phoenix Park Nursery ticked all the boxes of what I was looking for in a nursery. The setting is welcoming, engaging and maintained to the highest standards, with a great outdoor playing area and a range of clean toys. The children's toilets are always tidy and I have visited the setting at different
times of the day. There is a varied timetable for the children, engaging them in a range of activities. The staff are experienced childcare providers and very professional. My daughter has been attending Phoenix Park for the last 2.5 years and loves this nursery.

Absolutely brilliant nursery. Such lovely staff members, manager and the management/owners, are two of the kindest people I have met. Never known anyone so giving, kind and understanding. The nursery itself is so inviting, clean and full of different resources to encourage any child’s learning. This
isn’t just a nursery, it’s a family that anyone would be proud to be a part of.

With such welcoming and supportive staff, you can easily fall in love with Phoenix Park Nursery. My son's first language is not English, and from day one, we received fantastic support and understanding. We will miss them all at nursery, and I'm so sad about the closure of the nursery due to coronavirus.
I hope to see them soon.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.833)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.833) out of 10 for Phoenix Park Nursery Nuthall is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 31 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.833 for Phoenix Park Nursery Nuthall is calculated as follows: ( (317 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (7 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 372 Ratings = 4.833
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Phoenix Park Nursery Nuthall is based on 31 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 125 number of registered child places is 25, which has been reached with 31 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
